FREEDOM DEFENDER: Among Luis Mancheno’s many identities, the gay immigration attorney and refugee is most proud to call himself a U.S. citizen.

PRIDE MEANS: "It’s the celebration of being different. Celebration of [being] alive while being different, and I think that at the same time an occasion for our community to come together and say, 'We’re here, we’re not going anywhere, we’re happy, we’re fabulous, and we will put a fight for our rights."
